- Abstract
Sarcomas in the pediatric and adolescent population are rare. They include "pediatric" sarcomas (e.g., rhabdmyosarcomas), "adult type" soft part sarcomas and bone tumors with a pic incidence around adolescence. Most of them are chemosensitive. Multidisciplinary discussion with pediatric expertise is required before biopsy (INCa recommendations). Local treatment and reconstruction can be challenging in a growing person. Collaboration between pediatric and medical oncologists is fundamental to frontier sarcomas. International collaborations have already increased clinical and therapeutic knowledge for these diseases. Progress remains to be made in biological collections, translation of biological knowledge in adapted clinical trials regardless of age, and early access to new drugs.
